La Bella Vapor Shield Phosphor Bronze Acoustic Guitar Strings, 12-52 Light

THE FUTURE OF COATED STRINGS ARE NOT COATED.

Welcome to the next generation of extended-life strings. La Bella Vapor Shield™ strings are like no other string on the market because the surface of the string is modified during the treatment process. Coated strings are now a thing of the past.

NO FLAKES, NO CRACKS, NO PEELING. NO MUFFLED TONE.

Using a highly sophisticated Ionic Vapor Process™ developed by Acoustic Science, proprietary compounds are activated in a glow discharge electromagnetic plasma, and the surface of all strings are modified. The result is a string protected from dirt, oil, residue, and tarnishing. Most importantly, string playability and life is extended without flaking or compromising tone.

THE LA BELLA VAPOR SHIELD™ DIFFERENCE.

The technology behind La Bella Vapor Shield™ is unlike any other string. The entire surface and full-length of all strings are treated with a nucleated polymer vapor material that requires hours of complex prep and processing; no spraying or dipping.

The results are unmatched:

TONE. BRIGHTER than typical coated strings AND non-treated strings. Unlike traditional coated strings, Vapor Shield™ plain steel AND wound strings are treated, resulting in even tone.

FEEL. The Ionic Vapor Process™ improves the string’s surface properties, resulting in SMOOTHER plain steel and wound strings vs. both typical coated and non-treated strings.

LIFE-SPAN. Lasts 5x longer than non-treated strings.

ENDURANCE. No flaking after extended play. Impervious to grime, tarnishing and oil residue.
